2010 Toyota Prado - 2011 Lexus GX460 - Fully Disclosed

An Arabic forum uncovered the first unofficial photos for the highly anticipated 3rd generation 2010 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado (2011 Lexus GX460 variant). It is one of the most important SUV in the Gulf area. It is sold in the US as Lexus GX.

The photos show same design approach of the latest Land Cruiser. Toyota played it cautiously by retaining very strong resemblance to the second generation. The design is evolutional rather than evolutional. Nothing so special about it, but the wider fenders will give it a wider stance.

It is believed Toyota used the same platform of the second generation, which means a ladder frame structure. Engines are expected to be the same for the Gulf region, a 2.7 liter inline-4 and a 4.0 liter V6. For the Lexus GX it is expected to get the new 4.6 V8 with 310 hp.

The car will be introduced for the Middle East in September or earlier. The photos show the cars being piled at the dealers storage area before launch time.

Yes, they sell it in China too. The Lexus LX is based off of 4Runner, not Prado.
